Shouldnt there have been another explosion of hardcore?

I was thinking about the current administration and how the world is being run and i realized that this shouldve sparked a genre of angst ridden music to protest this. It really sucks because the hippie movment in the 60s and the hardcore scene in the early 80s seemed like something that wouldve been cool to be a part of. Now it seems the cool thing to do is sit in a corner and cry about relationships sure there are bands that are against the current administration, but i wish there was an entire genre just like hardcore in the 80s.

The Mitch Clem formula1)make jokes about rancid and NOFX (as if they dont already make fun of themselves)2)make obvious punk puns, possibly related to food3)make fun of Rancid and NOFX again4)??????5)PROFIT (and an army of internet fanboys)

The hippie movement wasn't any more productive then sitting in the corner and crying.

Today's kids know that there is little or no chance of them being drafted into dying in a war.It's just something that happens "over there" that they see on TV.

The hippies only became political because there was a very real chance that they would have to go and die, after the draft numbers started getting picked randomly (known as The Lottery").The Love Generation are not the heroes history has made them out to be.Never Trust A Hippy.

The 80s hardcore movement was also scared by something: Reagan went on TV and said that he had "outlawed Russia and that the bombing began in 5 minutes".Scared the h*ll out of a lot of people and made them angry.Add in crack, 200,000 more homeless on the streets, drive-by shootings, etc. and you can see that Reagan's "morning in America" was "waking up to a f*cking nightmare" to the rest of us.
